Monte Carlo, Mille Miglia, Nurburgring .
These are the deadliest curves, filled with the legends of men, machines and immortality.
Join me for a tour of the giants of racing, from 1896 through the 1960's, and their pictures and stories.
Blood, victory, defeat and courage; often in the same race.

The Fastest Car Of It's Time...

...was the Stanley Steamer.

In 1906, it flew at 126 MPH, smashing all-records.

This model had a larger steam engine than the regular sedan, and produced twice the power at a curb weight of just over 2,200 pounds!
